Split personality, I fake being smart
The stock uppers are cast and crack, that's why they make a replacement.
Lowers are probably cast steel (maybe forged?) so don't break
You would have to get one specially made, not really a major project but will be quite costly as alloy lower will have to be at least double the thickness of stock (lower yoke takes almost all the stress) plus, you'll have to have a steering stem made to fit new yoke

There are folks who make full billet trees, but you're looking at $500+ I'd think for a set. Heck you can get adjustable ones for dirt track racing where you can adjust rake etc.
The lower tree as mentioned is cast steel and the stem is typically welded into place.
The top tree is usually alloy, bolts on, and is a prime candidate for a relatively inexpensive piece of 'bling' for the bike hence the market for billet top trees.
